Wulp, i've become victem to the dreaded stock block breaking... so it's time to move on with a new short block 331ci... However i also seen that my spec stage 3 was pretty much in need of being replaced since it's close to the rivets on the clutch disk.... The question i was wondering is, can you jsut replace the fiber disk or do you have to replace the pressure plate as well, basicly buying a whole new clutch kit... I was only planning on replacing the fiber disk since the pressure plat looks to be in great condition... if i can just replace the disk i'm not sure where i can get it from unless i have to call up spec directly and get 1 from them... anyways any input would be awsome! thx again guys!

You can often get by with just replacing the disk. Most guys replace the whole assembly because pulling the clutch if it doesn't work good is a lot of extra work & expense.
